The attractive old market town of Sedbergh (pronounced Sed-Ber), with its old-world atmosphere, is not only set in the magnificent western dales of the Yorkshire Dales National Park but is also close to the rugged eastern fells of the Lake District. The town, with its narrow streets, little shops, traditional pubs, famous school dating back to 1525 and its 12th century church, has been a thriving community for hundreds of years, with a market dating from the 13th Century. Leading from Sedbergh is Dentdale, the jewel of the Yorkshire Dales with its rolling hills and dry-stone walls, stretching 14 miles from the windswept moors below Whernside to the confluence of the Rivers Dee and Rawthey. At the centre of the dale is Dent, with its cobbled streets, which has existed since Norman times and nearby Dent railway station is on the renowned Settle-Carlisle railway line. There are three golf courses nearby, as well as tennis, riding, and fishing, and the area is a paradise for walkers, ramblers, runners, and cyclists. This, together with the tranquillity of the surrounding valleys, the two National Parks and it being England's book town, makes an ideal year-round holiday destination.

    The whole thing about the cottage was lovely, the bed was so comfortable and everything you needed was provided. The owners have really provided it all. We had a lovely time, did some walking and visited some lovely places. Definitely recommend Sizergh castle and then go on to Kendal

  • Iris

    The cottage was lovely, in fact it was the warmest we have ever stayed in. Everything was extremely clean and well cared for as well as being ,private and quiet. The town of Sedburgh itself was great, very much a book town, all to be enjoyed. We hope to return soon. Iris and Danny Short.April 4th 2024
